Proverbs 30:24-28

English Standard Version Anglicised

^24 (A)Four things on earth are small,
    but they are exceedingly wise:
^25 (B)the ants are a people not strong,
    yet they provide their food in the summer;
^26 (C)the rock badgers are a people not mighty,
    yet they make their homes in the cliffs;
²⁷ the locusts have no ^(D)king,
    yet all of them march in ^(E)rank;
²⁸ the lizard you can take in your hands,
    yet it is in kings' palaces.
